5th Annual Polite Ink. After Dark
For 13 years, we’ve been your go-to for clever, quick-witted comedy. We’ve built a reputation on being "Polite"—but for one night a year, we check that reputation at the door.
Welcome to the 5th Annual After Dark, the fan-favorite event where the filters come off and the real fun begins. This isn’t your typical Polite Ink set. This is a deliberate dive into both completely uncensored, unfiltered sketch comedy and improv. We’re trading the wholesome "PG-13" vibes for a night of sharp, adult-themed humor that pushes every boundary we usually respect.
You’re more than just a spectator for this one. While we bring the scripted sketches, we look to the audience to help fuel the night, providing the inspiration and the "extras" that lead to the kind of unapologetic comedy you won't see any other time of year. There’s a reason this show sells out every June: after over a decade of being well-behaved, we’ve learned that the best jokes are the ones you help us find.
Please help us keep this calendar up to date! If this activity is sold out, canceled, or otherwise needs alteration, email mindy@kidsoutandabout.com so we can update it immediately. If you have a question about the activity itself, please contact the organization administrator listed below.
Come early, get comfortable, and see why "After Dark" has become the most anticipated night on our calendar.
YOU. WILL. LAUGH.

About Polite Ink. Comedy
Polite Ink., or PI as we affectionately call it, is made up of people. Funny people to be precise. Funny people who perform comedy.
PI specializes in both sketch and improvised comedy. We write and perform our own sketches and our improv games are made up on the spot based on audience suggestions. We even pull a few willing volunteers from the audience up on stage for certain improv games.
What else can you expect to see at our show? Well, in addition to sketch and improv, we also feature dancing, singing, occasional video shorts, sophisticated humor, dumb humor, clean humor, humorous humor, satire, constant silliness, and non-stop laughter. Further, our shows are rated PG to PG-13.
We are excited to be performing on various stages in Rochester and hope to see you soon at a show – take a look at our dates, or just drop us a line.
PI is one of Rochester's most unique comedy troupes.
